Find us by looking for a toilet – leave as a proud P Donor
Today’s agriculture depends on industrial fertilizers containing P, Phosphorus. This non-renewable is currently still obtained from mined Phosphate Rock which is depleting quickly. To secure our future food supplies we need to start to recover P now.
The P-BANK is a public toilet that aims to close the P-cycle. The sanitation system separates Pee from the waste water which simplifies nutrient recovery. This happens directly in the P-BANK. The recovered P is re-used as fertilizer in the P-BANK garden.
In the donor rooms you can comfortably donate in a no-mix toilet or a waterless urinal.
RECOVER
While washing hands, you can peek into the recovery lab. A process of chemical reactions recovers P from Pee safely and hygienically. little nightmares 3 nsp
Leaving the P-Bank you’ll discover that the recovered P can be successfully reused as an alternative for mined Phosphorus. Little Nightmares III: The Gilded Cage Six’s shadow
Little Nightmares III: The Gilded Cage
Six’s shadow walks past a broken birdcage, picks up the music box key, and walks toward the Signal Tower.
The Curator — A gaunt, faceless figure in a blood-red suit. He doesn't chase Wren directly. Instead, he collects children, preserving them as living “exhibits” in glass cases. He hums a lullaby that makes walls bleed and doors lock.
The Spiral — A seemingly infinite hotel that spirals both upward into gilded luxury and downward into industrial rot. The top floors are pristine art galleries and ballrooms. The middle floors are labyrinthine guest rooms and kitchens. The bottom floors are furnaces, waste-processing pits, and taxidermy workshops.
Wren — A small, resourceful child in a tattered birdcage-shaped dress and a porcelain half-mask (cracked, revealing one frightened eye). She carries a broken music box key as a lucky charm.
In a colossal resort where the wealthy and monstrous “Patrons” indulge in their darkest desires, a trapped child named Wren must navigate a maze of decadent decay to escape before she is collected as the evening’s “entertainment.”

In 2018 the Bauhaus University Weimar and WERKHAUS destinature received funding from the German Federal Environment Foundation (DBU) to develop the first P-BANK. The concept was developed by Anniek Vetter and Sylvia Debit during a semester project at the Bauhaus University Weimar led by Prof. Jörg Londong back in to 2013.
The P-BANK was first used for several months during the 100th anniversary year of Bauhaus in Weimar, Germany 2019. Later that year the P-BANK was at the Tiny Living Festival. The project was presented at the Antenna platform during the Dutch Design Week 2019.
WERKHAUS destinature built the mobile P-Bank from sustainable materials, based on the service and communication designed by Debit and Vetter, including donor-rooms containing the toilet safe! sponsored by Laufen. The recovering system is developed by the B.is, the department of urban water management and sanitation of the Bauhaus University Weimar led by Prof. Jörg Londong, with the support of Vuna and Eawag. Besides consulting Goldeimer supports getting the story and the out there!
